Sure I find the whole DST mess stupid to start with... but... _practically_ the meeting time is adjusted so that it always occurs at the same CET time. so the announce could be made using UTC for convenience, but in fact that UTC time has changed and will change according to the DST setting of CET... so instead of figuring out how many hours behind 3,4,5 you are from CET, you have to pay attention to the specific UTC time of the meeting, which will vary up to 2 hours depending on the specific date of the meeting. Note: 1/ I re-iterate that the reference time can be a certain CET time, and yet the announce can contain UTC time for convenience 2/ And the end of the day that was just a suggestion... that I made because we were running into the same problem with ESC meeting... I have no strong feeling about it... especially for a meeting that I rarely attend to start with :-) Norbert
